Simply Trust, Simply Obey


Take no thought of tomorrow--for God will take care of tomorrow. It is none of our concern--our lives are entirely dedicated to God's way and will, and we are united with Him in the way He wants to go.
When something interrupts us--our lives should become so simply aimed that God's interruptions become welcome. If our goal is complex, full of concerns and worry, the peace of Christ is destroyed, and we loose focus of pleasing Him. Nothing on earth should interrupt our goal to please Him.
We must "weed out" and die to our worldly desires and goals if we are to keep the Lord's plans and goals for us. We make our lives so unnecessarily difficult by disobeying Jesus Christ's demand the we take no thought of tomorrow. (Matt. 6:34).
We must surrender our planning to Him--it is His job, worrying about tomorrow brings us no-where. God gives us daily bread and blessings daily, not weekly. The Lord gives us strength according to our days, not years.
We need to keep that one thing necessary continually before us in our hearts, minds, and souls, and that is seeking to trust and obey God. Simply trusting that this is what God wishes, and trusting with our whole heart, and obeying in a manner pleasing to Him.
Our worldly life is not felt by God--he only know how he wishes it to be used for his kingdom--if we are full of worries, plans, and concerns--we cannot be used towards His goals, for worldly goals are continual crowd our lives and days, and not one con be devoted to His will or the interruption is too large.
Simply trust and obey--surrender all, give all, hope for nothing, pray continually, seek nothing--except the will of God--make His will yours, for ours has no gain, on blessings--only worry and concern, and His will is good and perfect, conform and become one with Christ.

This is a site where we all want to impart "grace unto the hearer"(Eph.4:29). Let us not attack each other but admonish with love, if we must rebuke a fellow believer. Also keep in mind I would appreciate no improper language or phrases.
Thank you for sharing your opinions with us.
God bless you,
